<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">mozilla_plugin_selinux
− Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
mozilla_plugin processes</p>
<h2>DESCRIPTION
<a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Security-Enhanced
Linux secures the mozilla_plugin processes via flexible
mandatory access control.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The
mozilla_plugin processes execute with the mozilla_plugin_t
SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes
running by executing the <b>ps</b> command with the
<b>−Z</b> qualifier.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">For
example:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>ps -eZ |
grep mozilla_plugin_t</b></p>
<h2>ENTRYPOINTS
<a name="ENTRYPOINTS"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The
mozilla_plugin_t SELinux type can be entered via the
<b>mozilla_plugin_exec_t, user_tmp_t</b> file types.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The default
entrypoint paths for the mozilla_plugin_t domain are the
following:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">/usr/lib/xulrunner[^/]*/plugin-container,
/usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/npviewer.bin,
/usr/bin/nspluginscan, /usr/bin/nspluginviewer,
/usr/libexec/WebKitPluginProcess,
/usr/lib/firefox/plugin-container, /tmp/libdnf..+,
/dev/shm/mono.*, /var/run/user/[^/]+, /tmp/.ICE-unix(/.*)?,
/tmp/.X11-unix(/.*)?, /dev/shm/pulse-shm.*, /tmp/.X0-lock,

<h2>PROCESS TYPES
<a name="PROCESS TYPES"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux defines
process types (domains) for each process running on the
system</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">You can see the
context of a process using the <b>−Z</b> option to
<b>ps</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Policy governs
the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
mozilla_plugin policy is very flexible allowing users to
setup their mozilla_plugin processes in as secure a method
as possible.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The following
process types are defined for mozilla_plugin:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>mozilla_plugin_t,
mozilla_plugin_config_t</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Note:
<b>semanage permissive -a mozilla_plugin_t</b> can be used
to make the process type mozilla_plugin_t permissive.
SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types,
but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still
generated.</p>
<h2>BOOLEANS
<a name="BOOLEANS"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux policy
is customizable based on least access required.
mozilla_plugin policy is extremely flexible and has several
booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run
mozilla_plugin with the tightest access possible.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
allow mozilla plugin domain to bind unreserved tcp/udp
ports, you must turn on the

default.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to

wireless technology, you must turn on the deny_bluetooth
boolean. Disabled by default.</p>

<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to

domain when running xulrunner plugin-container, you must
turn on the unconfined_mozilla_plugin_transition boolean.
Enabled by default.</p>
